Brian, I agree with you. Winter is challenging, and also healing. It’s like an x-ray of our lives, isn’t it? A time to see life in a simple, skeletal way—unembellished. Beautiful just as it is. I hear your willingness to live in the vivid present. I hope you’ll intentionally feel the cold outside—and then notice the warmth that comes from the inside. It’s your own earnest, warm heart. Thanks always for this honest reflection. May your winter sabbatical be restful and illuminating for you.

I really like this observation re: Autumn and the quiet and reflection because "Embracing this is countercultural, as we hear our societal message to push, to produce, and to never stop."
